Critics Review

“Imagine that you could ask almost every noteworthy psychedelic researcher not only to discuss their work in depth outside of the jargon of heavy journal descriptions but also to discuss the implications of their work and where it will be going in the future. Imagine an interviewer that knows the research backward and forward and presses each person to think in new directions. It’s all there in Psychedelic Medicine. I have been hoping for some years that there would be a book that I could point to that includes almost everything that’s going on. This is as close as we’re likely going to get. I’m in the book as well which is why I can attest to Miller’s knowledgeable and invaluable questioning.” * James Fadiman, PhD, microdose researcher and author of The Psychedelic Explorer’s Guide *“We love Dr. Richard Miller’s perceptive, up-close-and-personal interviews with the courageous pioneers of the psychedelic renaissance. Psychedelic Medicine is a treasure trove of insights into psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy’s well-documented ability to facilitate lasting healing and life-changing mystical experience.” * Jerry and Julie Brown, coauthors of The Psychedelic Gospels *“Lively, in-depth, and insightful interviews with both pioneering and contemporary members of the psychedelic research community. An excellent introduction to many of the themes and figures involved in the recent resurgence of clinical studies with these drugs.” * Rick Strassman, MD, author of DMT: The Spirit Molecule *“Fascinating conversations between a veteran explorer of altered states of consciousness and many of the leading lights in a new wave of research into psychedelic-assisted therapy. Brings together the science and spirituality of the entheogenic revival.” * Don Lattin, author of Changing Our Minds: Psychedelic Sacraments and the New Psychotherapy *“An amazing and inspiring read. Dr. Miller has cultivated provocative conversations with luminaries in the field of psychedelic research as well as some solid criticism of modern psychiatry.” * Julie Holland, MD, editor of The Pot Book and Ecstasy: The Complete Guide *“Psychedelic Medicine is a fascinating book published at exactly the right moment–when there is more psychedelic psychotherapy research than any other time in the last 50 years. This book is an excellent introduction for those who want to better understand the emergence of psychedelic psychotherapy.” * Rick Doblin, PhD, executive director of the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies *
